Petro Carbon & Chemicals Private Limited (PCCPL), a division under Atha Group located at Haldia was incorporated in September, 2007 and was subsequently acquired, revamped and upgraded into a CPC Plant in May 2008. Since then, the Group has been successful in evolving PCCPL into a sizeable CPC player in the Indian Market.
Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) is the product from calcining raw petroleum coke (RPC). The raw coke is the product of the coker unit in a crude oil refinery. CPC is used to make anodes for aluminium smelting, and is also used in dioxide industry, steel and titanium.
PCCPL is strategically located within the port perimeter and has easy and fast access to all the strategic transportation.
